Dear Doctors...

Dear Doctors,

I'm tired of you asking me to come back every few months and not do anything I suggest or want. You've given me the run around, and I don't appreciate it. You've given me zero hope for having a baby, and you told me that everything from here on depended solely on my husbands test results. I sent my husband to you so that you could help us in this journey, and all you've done was send him away with no hope, too. I am really disliking you at this moment, and you've done nothing but break our hearts over and over again. The least you could do is TRY to help us instead of constantly putting us off. I'm beyond tempted to go elsewhere and get a second opinion for both Luke and myself, but you've broken my heart so many times that I'm afraid of hearing the same, harsh words that you've told me time and time again. If it's my money that you wanted instead of helping us successfully conceive, then well done, you've succeeded. Congratulations.

I'm so sorry you're feeling this way. The most important lesson I learned in my IF journey has been to be my own advocate, do my own research and go into every appointment well read and on top of it, sometimes doctors need a push!

About Me

I'm a 24 years old foster mom to three kiddos ages 3 and under. Not too long ago I felt that I knew what life was going to be like. I would have a full time job, 2 kids, a house, and two dogs. Like most things in life, we do not always get what we dream of, but I can say that I have been given more than I could ever imagine for myself. I'm here to share my experiences--the good, the bad, and the ugly--and in turn I hope to inspire you and bring hope to your life.
